Part I: Writing a Narrative Text

Throughout the second half of this unit, you have been analyzing characters in scenes of Divided Loyalties and writing a short first person narrative explaining what a character is thinking and feeling at a specific point in the scene.

Use Act III, Scene 3 to write a short (no more than two paragraphs) first person narrative to show what Robert was thinking and feeling as he said goodbye to William and boarded the ship. (RL.4.1, RL.4.3, W.4.3a, W.4.3b, W.4.3e)

REMEMBER: A well-written first person narrative:
■ Elaborates on a character’s thoughts and feelings from the details already provided in the text
â–  Follows the same plot as the text
â–  Uses description to help the reader understand what the character is thinking and feeling
â–  Uses description to help the reader understand what other characters are doing
â–  Follows rules of writing (spelling, punctuation, and grammar)

Now, begin work on your narrative piece. Manage your time carefully so that you can:
1. Analyze the character’s thoughts, feelings, and actions.
2. Draft your first person narrative.
3. Use the Narrative Writing Checklist to revise and edit your writing.

You can use the graphic organizer below to analyze Robert’s thoughts, feelings, and actions if it is useful to you; it will not be assessed.
